Zero to 100 mph: 16.0 sec
Standing 1/4-mile: 15.0 sec @ 96 mph

Yuck. Unless saturn is giving us wheel HP and TQ ratings AND underrating the car by about 20 HP and 50 LB/FT of TQ, I think those numbers are accurate. The only thing I see that would help it get a better 1/4 time (using stock SRT numbers as a basis for comparison) is that the curb weight is 2600 lb's, 250 lbs less than an unmaned SRT-4. Still for the money, this appears to be a very formidable lil rocket.
